Half Price Swindler's Nickels

In 1883, the new nickel featured only a large 'V' for the 5 cent denomination. Racketeers gold-plated some and passed them off as $5 gold pieces. The deaf mute Josh Tatum was the most notorious and got off by claiming that he couldn’t tell merchants it was merely a nickel and 'I was only joshing you' entered the language. Our set includes the second 1883-1913 type with the word "cents" added in Good quality. Dates of our choice.
